Case against Yasir Shah withdrawn for allegedly aiding in rape,harassment of 14-year old girl [#196]

[realitygaf]

Those who are saying this is similar to babar azam allegations are missing the length of the ball completely. Babar Azam story was a woman who said babar azam promised to marry her and professed the love for him. This is about an allegation that Yasir Shah is a perpetrator or an enabler or faciliator of rape. this is like on another level.

 

[ExplicitAI]

I seriously cannot believe what I am seeing. Yasir Shah has been a breathe of fresh air since Saeed Ajmal got banned for chucking and was earning praise from the likes of Shane Warne, he did make his Test debut a lot later at the age of 28 but made up for lost time by picking up a lot of wickets in 46 Tests.

I am not too sure about how the law works in Pakistan but from the comments I have been reading in this thread I'd say that there are too many clues to suggest that this accusation might be true. He has been performing poorly as of late, people claim that he has done inappropriate things whilst being recorded, he had a 3 month ban due to "mistakingly" taking his wife's medication which are illegal to use within the sport. Another thing to mention is that when you see cases like these, drugs tend to be heavily involved so it does make me think more about that 3 month ban that he had a few years ago.

Never did I expect Yasir to get himself in this type of situation. His performances have not been as good and he has been conceding too many runs in recent Test matches which suggest that his mind is not in the right place if that makes any sense. Any individual, regardless of his race, religion, background, gender, etc, must receive the harshest punishment for a crime like this. Even though he threatened the underage girl in this case, he should receive the harshest punishment alongside Farhan for committing this serious crime. Sexual grooming and rape are one of the most sinister of crimes and people who commit this disgusting act must rot in prison for life and be made an example out of, so that people can think twice of doing something like this.

He should have a trial and everyone should wait around and watch to see if he is guilty or not. If he is guilty, then the pitchforks must come out and needs life imprisonment. Once again, I seriously cannot believe what I am seeing.

 

[Giannis]

Again, please review my post above.

The power imbalance in such cases means that in western countries a presumption of innocence until convicted in court does not apply.

In the first two cases I listed, the famous person who is now unemployable is not even accused of rape, just of using their celebrity to sexually harass people.

In western society, the existence of the sort of accusation now made against Yasir Shah would make him unselectable.

So if some random person accused you of the same and you were innocent would that be justified?

 

[Smbhayi]

So she called Yasir Shah.. why don't she recorded it? That would be strengthen the case, nah...?

 

[Giannis]

Hope it's not true but if it is then he should get capital punishment

She did. The audio is with police

 

[MenInG]

You are not a superstar athlete.

These guys find themselves in different circumstances and temptations abound.

Players need to be educated and must follow a strict code of conduct or Pak cricket will continue to be hit by scandals.

What code of conduct would you propose?

 

[James]

Not sure how Pakistani law works. If similar to British or Australian (and if allegations are true) then he is part of conspiracy to commit rape. Conspiracy being defined as participating in the planning, or execution of the deed or encouraging others to do so.

Punishment would be similar to rape, in that case.

The Pakistani legal system is descended from the laws of the British Empire, so is similar in structure to England & Wales / Australia.

Ok thanks, I suspected they inherited a similar commonwealth system but wasn't sure how much/if various governments had changed it and how much it incorporates aspects of Islamic law.

 

[Ryw]

At the moment these are allegations. Was not long ago Babar was shoved under the bus for something that he had not done , and it all claim clear in the end .

Having worked in the Homeoffice for many years bogus FIR’s is very common in Pakistan . Let’s just wait .

Women who falsely accuse men of sexual crimes should have to register as sex offenders, serve mandatory jail time and pay for the legal fees of the accused.

Babar did commit those things. It was never that Babar was innocent. They probably did an out of court settlement.

This case is difference, this is a pedophillia case plus rape.

stop comparing apples with oranges.


What i have found interesting is that Pakistani people even on fb dont really care about pedophilia or dont understand how much bad the crime becomes from that

 

[wrongun]

Would you shift the burden of proof from "beyond reasonable doubt" that the man is guilty, also over to needing to prove whether the woman is making it all up in order for these punishments? That would be equitable right? Because they are not one and the same thing.

Does the same punishment extend to every accuser of a crime? Seems to set a culture where no one can question authority.

Did you tried to read what I said, read it again before getting offended, OP has already declared that his career is over even if the accusations are false.

 

[PakLFC]

Don't think a 14 years old kid will lie over such things. Most of the time such allegations prove to be right particularly when so called celebrities are accused. It is the end of the road for Yasir's Cricket career. I don't expect any legal action to be taken against him instead he will buy the victim's family out.

 

[MesonK]

LOL at people passing verdicts.

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

Question - has anyone read the OP? Because from what I’ve read he hasn’t been accused of rape himself. At best (or worst) his friend/ acquaintance is the accused, while Yasir himself has been charged with bad behaviour it seems.

Or maybe I read that wrong.

He’s an accomplice to the crime without a doubt from what I’ve read and also solicitation of a minor should also be taken into account.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

The girl in question is a 14 year old.

Now unless we are considering her testimony and following Islamic jurisprudence she is a "minor in every aspect of the case".

Either these things happened or the "minor made it up".

The minor made it up because

1. She was "coached" by her parents because of some personal enmity between the families (not unheard of).

OR

2. The minor was "besotted" with Yasir and when Yasir being the upright gentleman repudiated her sexual advances, she turned to the "me too" terminology to extract revenge from Yasir.

These are two likely ways Yasir is innocent.

The 3rd possibility is it went exactly like the minor presented and Yasir was an accomplice to his friends pedophilia hobby.

Choose which explanation you like.

Btw the Western system of justice isnt that perfect either.
It doesnt matter who is speaking the truth.

If the case goes to court, it just means "which version is more likely in front of jury".

A good lawyer can save a guilty man and vice versa.

 

[MenInG]

Islamabad - The capital police have registered a case against Pakistani cricketer Yasir Shah and his friend Farhan on charges of raping, harassing and threatening a 14-year-old school going girl and began investigation, informed sources on Monday.

“Yasir Shah is accused of harassing the girl, her aunt on phone and abetting the rape of the teenage girl,” they said. The First Information Report (FIR) was lodged with Police Station (PS) Shalimar under sections 376 (Punishment for rape); 292b (Child pornography) and 292c on complaint of Sumaira, a resident of F-10/3, they said. However, no arrest was made by police so far.

According to sources, a female citizen namely Sumaira lodged a complaint with officials of PS Shalimar, stating that she, along with her 14-year-old niece Farah (10th class student) travelled to Lahore in June 2021 on invitation of Pakistani cricketer Yasir Shah as he was known to her since long. She added her niece got sick and disturbed after passage of three months.

The applicant told police her niece shared her ordeal upon asking that Farhan, a friend of Yasir Shah, took her cell number and developed friendship on phone. “I was returning from tuition centre when Farhan met me and took me to a flat in Sugrah Tower in F-11 where he raped me forcefully on gunpoint and recorded the objectionable scenes in mobile phone,” the applicant quoted teenage girl as saying.

The complainant told police both Yasir Shah and Farhan threatened her to leak the video on social media and kill her if she shared ordeal of her niece with anyone. “My niece was again trapped by Farhan and raped her in a flat located on roof of Barista Cafe in E-11,” the applicant alleged.

Sumaira told police she brought the matter into notice of Yasir Shah in September 2021 when he was on tour of West Indies on which the bowler threatened the victim and her niece to implicate them in a bogus case as he has deep contacts in police and other law enforcement agencies.

The complainant said that the national cricketer offered to bear all the expenses of her niece Farah until she turned 18 and naming a flat in her name when she (Sumaira) informed the police about the incident.

The applicant accused Yasir Shah and Farhan of trapping and raping the innocent girls in their Sheesha Cafe besides making nude videos to blackmail the girls and their families. Police have registered a case against the national cricketer and his friend and launched investigation into allegations. A senior police officer said that police would solve this case on merit. He said investigators had raided the flats and the Sheesha Cafe and seized some evidences besides recording statements of persons present there.

[Giannis]

Why is this lady taking her underage cousin to adult parties? I feel like the cousin is also a groomer cause I'm pretty sure she would know what would be going on in these parties as she was friends with the perps. Maybe she played the role of Ghislane Maxwell but decided to switch sides once she wasn't getting the cut she wanted. I've never heard of an adult take their 14 year old cousin to a party so I have reasons to believe she's also one of the abettors.

 

[mazkhan]

This will end up the same way as babar and ali zafar.

And yasir will be back in the test team since you don't discard a 200 wicket test player and that to a leg spinner which are very hard to find at test level.

Meanwhile major will continue with his sensationalism of life imprisonment and death penalty nonsense and banishment from cricket when he probably knows that child abuse is rampant in pakistan and when you put yasirs case in the context that is pakistan or pakhtun afghan society and its vices and evils its a non story .

Again, i dont know how many times i have to repeat this.

Babar Azam and Ali Zafar were not a case of a pedophilia. Those were cases related to harassment or sex out of wedlock.

This Yasir Shah case is not only rape but pedophilia aswel.

I dont know in your mind what is Pakistan, but even in Pakistan, when pedophilia is bought forward people dont take this lightly.

For you 200 wickets means of much more value, but for many Pakistanis it is important that someone who has aided in the rape of a minor is banished from cricket.

Im surprised how small of an issue people here think Pedophilia is. Even if this exists in Pakhtun or Afghan culture you cant justify it..

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Sounds like a case of extortion. Im not sure why the lady compained to Yasir about the alleged rape of her neice rather than going to the police.

Whatever the outcome the young 14 year is a victim and can hopefully be saved from this toxic environment.

 

[Last Monetarist]

Just a minor clarification is in order:

Yasir Shah is alleged to have threatened/blackmailed the victim's aunt, not the victim herself, nor is he accused of rape himself.

It doesn't excuse his behaviour nor acquit him in any way, but the charge is less severe than rape or solicitation of a minor.

 

[Ryw]

Men should just be men and stop crying about their Rights. You got wrongly accused of rape so whatttt.

 

[Shoaibbtt]

You are not a superstar athlete.

What a silly thing to say, this is a serious allegation of sex/rape not something on inequality or speeding in your car.

This should be common sense to anyone that you keep yourself to yourself, you feel tempted do what every other guy does if his partner is not around.

Well in the FIR report, it mentions he wanted to meet the girl on the 22nd of December. What was his intentions for that day? Sounds an awful like solicitating a minor for sex.

 

[Last Monetarist]

That bit is a little confusing, maybe a criminal lawyer will be able to clarify if this strictly falls under the definition of solicitation. A good lawyer will still perhaps be able to get him off this charge given that he has not engaged directly with the minor and argue that this threat was intended to merely harass the aunt. Intent will need to be established and proved in court.

Either way, this should spell the end of his career.

 

[realitygaf]

The FIR was filed by the minor's aunt.

According to the FIR this minor was noticed by this aunt as out of sorts and got details that Yasir Shah was a friend through an acquantiance. Yasir Shah gave her details to his friend who contacted her and befriended her (at this point it was "innocent"). This friend of Yasir Shah took this minor to an Apartment which Yasir Shah has a connection too and started Harrassing her. Then he took out a gun and sexually assaulted her on gunpoint and told the girl he would kill her and her family if he said anything. This Aunt contacted Yasir Shah who said what happened has happened and he will pay for this girl's livelihood until she is 18 years old and not to contact the police. When the Aunt escalated Yasir Shah threatened her over the phone with a death threat and said on Dec 22 I will come and deal with you. The next day the woman took the audio conversation with Yasir Shah and this girl to police to file an FIR

I think watching a lot of those Chris Hansen shows, the big question poses why would you ask a 14 year old to come and visit you unaccompanied?

If allegations are true not only will this affect his international career but he can also kiss franchise cricket/county cricket goodbye if he's put on the sex offender's register because with being a cricketer you can have engagement with youngsters and so this will affect everything.

 

[Giannis]

The aunt/cousin alleged that he wanted to meet her (not the teen) who she claims is also her friend, to "iron out" the issues between her and the other guy.

I repeat again what business does a 14 year old have with meeting a grown man? We'll when the facts come out but if this is all true Yasir should never step into cricket in any form again.

Why did the Aunt contact Yasir and not the Police after a sexual assault? If you have a relative that has been assaulted shouldnt you contact the Police? This is another sordid story where no one comes across as innocent and all seem dodgy.

Sorry it's quite a bad translation I'm reading he wanted to meet the aunt and requested the presence of the girl.

However, still a lot of shocking stuff in there like Yasir saying he liked "young" girls.

 

[Barragan]

That friend guy of Yasir definitely needs to be removed from society!

As for Yasir himself, if he truly did threaten the lady to stop her from filing a report to the police to protect his friend, then he needs to be put behind bars.

 

[Zaz]

Its probably more of a case where yasir was being blackmailed over what his friend has allegedly done and yasirs told the woman where to go

 

[realitygaf]

if any of this is true Yasir's Career is over. Knowing Ramiz Raja he will get PCB to ban Yasir for life even if he didnt rape himself

You could be on to something here bro, exactly what I thought.

Has Yasir made a comment yet on this?

 

[kingusama92]

If all of this is true, Rameez won't have to make a decision.

Yasir Shah is going to face serious prison time.

The most important thing is to let the legal proceedings move forward and keep Yasir Shah out of the team until everything is cleared. If it's not then Yasir Shah has much bigger things to worry about including his freedom.

 

[topspin]

His accuser was found of guilty of defamation. 9 witnesses deny Ali Zafar committed the act as he was 5-6ft away during that rehearsal where he was accused of doing all sorts shall we say.

 

[octavian]

Should be prosecuted and punished to the fullest extent of the law, if found guilty.

However, we know nothing about the facts yet. People are still innocent until proven guilty.

[iniqbal223]

The allegations against yasir is of aiding rape and harassment via threats .

He hasn't raped anyone , those allegations are against someone called farhan.

So let's not the jump the gun and let the courts decide

These are some serious allegations
Forget playing, being accomplice he should be sentenced to few months to few years in jail

Exactly , until legal course is not completed, he should not take part in cricket
otherwise one heroic performance , and our Buzdil and illogical awaam will ask this monster to be given mercy

 

[zacattakk]

These are very serious allegations. A detailed investigation needs to be done, currently it is just an allegation. But if there is any truth to this then it needs to be the end of his career. Being friends with a rapist and pedophile and then threatening the victims on his behalf......wow. Since parts of the alleged communication were on whatsapp then if its true there will be some proof.

 

[cricketjoshila]

Why did the victim call up Yasir, asking for justice? Yasir is police or court?

Extremely unfortunate for the minor if true.

 

[MenInG]

According to media reports, police are unable to locate Yasir Shah and Farhan....

 

[Ryw]

Why did the victim call up Yasir, asking for justice? Yasir is police or court?

Because calling up Yasir will spark attention internationaly, honey trapping big fishes is easy money in quick time. The area mention in Islamabad and sheesha centre is a hub of underground activities. I see aunty also in trouble as she is involving a minor girl in this illegal buisness.
Yasir Shah needs a strong lawyer to get out of this mess and open up instead of remaining quiet

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Has Yasir made any statement yet ?
What is the next step in the proceedings as per law in Pakistan ?

 

[MenInG]

Ramiz Raja speaking in presser today:

"I don't know what is the truth in this case but it is a fact that such headlines are not good for Pakistan cricket and specially at a time when there is a feel good factor going through Pakistan Cricket now"

"It is a no-brainer that they must know with whom or when to socialise."

"I want these players to be earning well but they also have responsibilities towards Pakistan cricket and the sport."

 

[Robert]

I would feel disappointed in Yasir as I rather like him as a player, but let the court decide and justice be done.

 

[Abdurmirr]

If all allegations are proven to be true (does look like it), than Yasir should be thrown behind bars for good.
Absolutely disgusting and deplorable

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Allegations need to be proven in court.

However in this mee too time a lot of people have lost their positions in society without being convicted of the allegations in court.

Being involved in a rape case of minor is worse then a murder case in my opinion. Obviously Yasir cannot be part of Pakistan cricket until this case is solved and he is 100% without any doubt cleared.

If he is involved he has to serve serious jail time. Police must investigate if there are other cases as well.

 

[Shoaibbtt]

It's her word against his, let due process take its course.

Indeed, whoever if found guilty the death penalty, life imprisonment or even castration are a possibility

 

[Smbhayi]

Why did the victim call up Yasir, asking for justice? Yasir is police or court?

Serious question should be why does she takes kid in adult party..?

And Yasir would have known that its a dodgy area and still socialised with such people. Lots of bad people and a poor girl at the centre of it.

 

[cricketAXEpert]

Why did the victim call up Yasir, asking for justice? Yasir is police or court?

Blackmailers are out in force right now (fake doctored Audio & videos are popping up everyday). Obviously it is Yasir who has the most to loose in this situation hence target him for the Black Mail. Blackmailers are always looking for an out of court settlement, a pay out. Don't know if Yasir is guilty or not however it all sounds suspicious as he is not directly involved.

Not just that but how does one manage to convince a 14 year old girl to get a taxi to the meet up spot.

A 14 year old girl in Pakistan is totally different to a 14 year old in the west.

Where were the guardians? How did she get permission to leave on her own? So many questions…

 

[Shoaibbtt]

Another report saying that they refused to come to the police station to record statements. All very odd.

Ok, couple of things with that.

1. You'd probably not want to attend the station without the presence of a lawyer or just go with your lawyer
2. Lawyer presence should be negligible if all these allegations are clearly false

Fishy, Fishy, Fishy.

Surely it can't be that difficult to find a high profile cricketer who most of the country would recognise.

According to media reports, police are unable to locate Yasir Shah and Farhan....

That doesnt sound good at all..

Not just that but how does one manage to convince a 14 year old girl to get a taxi to the meet up spot.

A 14 year old girl in Pakistan is totally different to a 14 year old in the west.

Where were the guardians? How did she get permission to leave on her own? So many questions…

Lol ur naive. The west culture is pretty ripe in pakistan. It happens everywhere.

A 14 year old is still a 14 year old. However, yes lots of questions arise but the kid is not to be blamed in my eyes.

I just read it properly now, so she was picked up from school which is more likely to happen than picking her up from home.

I reckon this 14 year old isn’t the first victim…

Let's see what happens but this is not looking good if it's true.

I would say if Yasir is guilty then he should be placed on the sex offender's register as he's abetted the rape of the girl, could possibly be castrated, jail sentence is a must and he can kiss his full cricketing career goodbye as no SENA country will allow a sex predator to play in their country.

If the victims are found guilty then they should be sued for defamation of character and Yasir along with Farhan should exercise this to the fullest.

Although it's easy for us to feel for the victims at this time, we must remember that we live in a just society and every man has a right to a fair trial. So my advise at this point is for Yasir along with Farhan to comply with the police and get to the bottom of this.

Still no sign of Yasir Shah and his mate.

Maybe they've not watched the news in the last few days and don't know the police is looking for them.
